bodywork for women by women

Womb Continuum Care is whole-body tending in service to your feminine physiology. It is informed by the reality that you inherently carry the blueprint for vitality and coherence. This work’s purpose is to reorganize your body back into your God-given, original alignment.

Receive anatomy-specific, nervous system-aware manual therapy with deep attunement to the unique layers that make up your body. This approach combines structural integration drawn from Ida Rolf’s method with deep abdominal care, uterine work, and intra-pelvic care.

This work is for you if you are ready to commit to your body’s capacity for transformation.

This change is informed by hands-on care and deepened through your own personal tending outside our time together.

  • "Working with Mandy took everything I was learning and brought it down into to my own body. I felt so held in her hands. She brought my awareness to the shifts happening in my body during the work which was so fascinating, and held space for me to integrate my emotions while I felt like I was unwinding in a beautiful way. I came away from the intensive feeling empowered, educated, softened and so excited about new ways I could relate to my body and pregnancy going forward."

    —Kristi K.

  • "I came to this work through a C-section scar, pelvic floor concerns and incontinence. After 10 sessions, my body has transformed considerably. My posture is better and I stand taller. My incontinence has decreased, my belly has changed shape and structure significantly. I feel as if there has been a coming home. Mandy is a perceptive practitioner with clearly a lot of training and knowledge, in addition to the fact that she is very observant, focused, and her hands just seem to know what to do."

    —Jan O.

  • "I'm no stranger to womb work, but sessions with Mandy clearly stand out as the most healing of them all. She helped me understand and relieve intense pain patterns that were inhibiting my life, our time together has really supported me to stay present in my body. Alongside the deep nourishment of Mandy's hands-on work, the conversations we've had throughout our sessions have been pivotal for me. If it wasn't for the wisdom she shared with me, I would be wrestling with much more fear as I await birth. I feel so much more capacity, both practically and emotionally, to be with whatever unfolds."

    —Freya K.

  • "I began Womb Continuum Care after a miscarriage and it definitely helped my body get back into alignment. After only a session or two my digestion had improved, lower back pain virtually gone, cleared stuck energy in my womb, better posture and breathing, plus I feel overall lighter and clearer. I am now pregnant again and continuing care with Mandy, it's if I'm being held in a womb."

It is my deepest desire that our time together be as effective, embodied, and transformational as possible.

Therefore, I require sobriety, which includes the use of cigarettes, vapes, psychedelics, stimulants, antipsychotics, and anti-depressants.

I only work with those who eat a variety of animal-based foods, including meat. I do not work with those who eat a vegetarian or vegan diet.

Additionally, I do not work with those who have an IUD in place, use hormonal contraception, have implants or use botox.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • I am in the Westview area of Powell River. My address is included with your booking confirmation. My space is in the detached garage, with the door facing the back alley. Please park in the back, with access from the back alley and arrive no more than 5 minutes prior to your appointment.

  • Our work together will only be as effective as the care and attention you give your body in your everyday life. Non-negotiables for effective body-changing work are 8+ hours of sleep, daily movement, eating regular meals including animal meats.

    Daily abdominal castor oil packing supports the process of softening adhesions and grants us easier access to deeper tissue layers.

    On the day of your session, have clean skin, including your face, free from moisturizers, oils, and makeup. You do not need to wear any clothing during your session, or you may choose to wear a loose tank top (no bra) and comfortable underwear.

    If you have a belly button piercing, it must be removed and stay removed for the duration of your womb continuum care. Remove any K-tape prior to your session.

    If you use cortisone, medicated, or hormonal topical creams, please do not apply them within 24 hours of your session.

    It is recommended to avoid other forms of strong, manipulative bodywork, including care from an RMT, while receiving a series of womb continuum care sessions.

  • After your initial session, I recommend booking a series of sessions to commit to the long haul of changing your body. For example 3-5 sessions paced once every 1-2 weeks.

  • No. The intention of womb continuum care is to create lasting change through specialized manual therapy and your personal commitment to transformation outside of our time together. Every session builds on the previous and the intention is to access deeper layers over time, which often requires repetition of technique and consistency.

    This work is less about symptom relief and relaxation, and more about changing your body’s structure, prioritizing your anatomy layer by layer, deep tending, presence, embodiment, and self-responsibility.

  • I do not do any pelvic care during a first session. This work must be paced to build trust and true consent in the body. Intra-pelvic care is offered at minimum after your first session, if not after many sessions.

    For most pelvic concerns, it is paramount to address external structures, blood flow, and lifting of the abdominal organs and uterus prior to any intra-pelvic work.

    Pelvic care includes vulva, groin, intra-vaginal, and anal work.

  • Yes. I recommend investing in bodywork during your preconception phase for several months while actively trying NOT to conceive, especially if you’ve just stopped hormonal or long-acting contraception.

    However, if you are actively trying to conceive please schedule your sessions prior to ovulation, and avoid sessions between ovulation and potential pregnancy.

  • Pregnancy: I do not work with those who are in any stage of their first trimester. You may schedule yourself back into care starting around 20 weeks.

    Vaginal birth: Immediately. Consider a series of First 40 Days tending.

    Cesarean Section: Wait at least 10-12 weeks, unless receiving in-home First 40 Days Care.

  • Yes. You may book into care once you have a confirmed miscarriage by ultrasound or immediately following oral medication.

    Please wait 2-4 weeks following a D+C.
